Piggy is the intellectual with poor eyesight, a weight problem, and asthma. He is the most physically vulnerable of all the boys, despite his greater intelligence. Piggy represents the rational world. By frequently quoting his aunt, he also provides the only female voice.
Piggy's intellect benefits the group only through Ralph; he acts as Ralph's advisor. He cannot be the leader himself because he lacks leadership qualities and has no rapport with the other boys. Piggy also relies too heavily on the power of social convention. He believes that holding the conch gives him the right to be heard. He believes that upholding social conventions get results.
As the brainy representative of civilization, Piggy asserts that "Life . . . is scientific." Ever the pragmatist, Piggy complains, "What good're your doing talking like that?" when Ralph brings up the highly charged issue of Simon's death at their hands. Piggy tries to keep life scientific despite the incident, "searching for a formula" to explain the death. He asserts that the assault on Simon was justifiable because Simon asked for it by inexplicably crawling out of the forest into the ring.
Piggy is so intent on preserving some remnant of civilization on the island that he assumes improbably enough that Jack's raiders have attacked Ralph's group so that they can get the conch when of course they have come for fire. Even up to the moment of his death, Piggy's perspective does not shift in response to the reality of their situation. He can't think as others think or value what they value. Because his eminently intellectual approach to life is modeled on the attitudes and rules of the authoritative adult world, he thinks everyone should share his values and attitudes as a matter of course. Speaking of the deaths of Simon and the littlun with the birthmark, he asks "What's grownups goin' to think?" as if he is not so much mourning the boys' deaths as he is mourning the loss of values, ethics, discipline, and decorum that caused those deaths. Hope that helps, sorry it’s long
The best option would be, In my opinion, option c) which states that they and their spouses can all become friends and joke that their children cannot date each other.
If they have agreed that they and their spouses can be friends , then it means that they have forgiven each other and themselves. As for the second part, the most important term here is ‘jokingly’, which means that they did not mean it to be an iron-clad rule and it may change in the future.
The example that contains an error in logic as worded is:
D. Mark's usual reason for not turning in his homework was because he forgot his backpack.
Here, we have an adverb of reason (because), which functions as a subordinating conjunction and makes up an adverbial clause of reason. Using the word "because" after previously using the word "reason", implicates some sort of redundancy.
The logical structure to express this idea would be the following:
D. Mark's usual reason for not turning in his homework was that he forgot his backpack.
